FerrisNext Scholarship

FerrisNow students may be eligible for a $1,000 FerrisNext Scholarship if they earned at least three college credits with a "C" or higher through Ferris while they were in high school.

Detailed scholarship information is available on the Incoming Freshmen Scholarships webpage.

Registration Holds

All FerrisNow students have a registration hold applied to their Ferris State University accounts.

This hold prevents you from registering for Ferris courses. You will be registered for your courses by the FerrisNow Program staff.

If you are a high school student and have questions about taking Ferris classes, consult your high school or career and technical education center counselor.

Address Verification Holds

Keeping your phone number and address current is important. Thus, an address verification hold is applied to all student accounts. This hold is in place so the University has up-to-date information for students.

An address verification hold prevents you from requesting an official Ferris State transcript.

The hold will be lifted after you verify that your address is correct in MyFSU. You will need to update your address in MyFSU if changes occur to your local and permanent address.

Follow the instructions below to have the Address Verification hold removed from your student account.

Student Processes and Procedures
- Students must be held to the same standards of achievement as those expected of students on Ferris State’s campus. Students’ performances should be assessed using the same methods as students taking college courses on campus (papers, portfolios, quizzes, labs, etc.).
- Students are officially registered as Ferris students. Courses are recorded on an official university transcript. Students enrolling in concurrent enrollment courses for college credit must meet the same course pre-requisites as students on campus and meet dual enrollment guidelines.
